SINGLE REVIEW: Sekond Skyn - My Head
Genres shifting, hard-hitting rock outfit Sekond Skyn blast on their anthemic new single 'My Head'.
'My Head' is a cross-genre track combining elements of funk metal with blues and heavy southern rock to create a truly authentic Americana feel. Stunning earthy vocals layer with a riff-driven sound bursting with rich melodies and vibrant solos. Thundering drums and gritty pulsating bass complete the lineup. Catchy and bellowing 'My Head' is a perfect slice of multifaceted rock drawing influences from a whole plethora of styles; the track is big on impact with its high octane, rhythmic stance.
Each instrument blends seamlessly together to produce a flawless sound that is raw and genuine. Produced to perfection it retains every shred of emotion. Singer Jesse's voice is honest and inviting as the word present the idea of opening yourself up to another person. Giving them every piece of you only for them to break you emotionally. It's a harrowing account of how easy it is to give someone free rein to change and destroy you, reaching the point where the only place you're free is inside your dreams. A realisation that every waking minute is spent living in your head, crushed by thoughts and the knowledge you can't continue this way.
'My Head' is brutally honest, blissfully melodic, and completely infectious. An absolute anthem!
